Coatalem, Jean-Luc In Search of Gauguin
Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 2004 9780297829683 2004 0297829688 / 9780297829683 hardback NEW
NEW hardback in d/w. 282 pages. Colour and b/w illustrations. A personal journey as well as an exploration of the life of Paul Gauguin. From the blurb: "A sepia picture of an Anglo-Polynesian woman bought at an auction inspires the author to set off on a trail following the traces left by Gauguin on his travels round the globe. Who was the woman in the painting and why did Gauguin paint the face of her son, Atiti, on the day of his death at Papeete? Jean-Luc Coatalem decides to travel to the South Seas in search of the woman and her story. And so starts the author's reconstruction of Gauguin's life, an artist who thought he could find himself by escaping from reality, a man who reinvented exoticism, and finally lost his mind".
